[benandjack]

been looking for a while and made up my mind (or should i say when the wife gave me the ok) with a centre cosole 460 renegade from quintex got the package from white water marine on the gold coast so far nothing but helpful, the lay out suzuki DF60ATL, humminbird 788CXI HDDI combo with gold card, 100L live well (plumbed in cast deck), live bait tank plumbed, 70L under floor tank, 2x skipper seats, 1x lean seat, bow mount bracket, VHF radio and antenna, nav lights, fuel filter,bilge pump,tacho, speedo, trim and fuel guage white with chrome, nsw boat and trailer rego,total price 25k. the young bloke jack (he is 5) is as excited as the old man, and my beautiful daughter Matilda (she is 3) has added her touch with a pink stripe down the side lol, should be great for light off shore work off the Tweed chasing snapper and jewies with plastics, and still at home up the tweed river after jacks and big flatties and the odd muddie nothing beats family time on the water up the river and dads time out out off the tweed reefs see ya out their

Cool - The quinnies cop a bit of a bashing on this forum - but they are a pretty good production boat and have one of best pressed hull shapes.

My smaller boat is a 4.5m quintrex C/Console - late 70's vintage and she is still going strong - only had to weld up one little pin hole in the hull. No cracks - and I give her a bit of a flogging on occasion in less than ideal conditions and when crossing a couple of the bars on the Sunny Coast.
